No, I don't think this is going to work. Like I said, there are a whole bunch of other types other than raid.... Since this can change depending on the kernel/mdadm version. We can't support an exhaustive list here.

If you move this to after if len(lines) <= i+3 { you can reduce the word checking to just the check for (...).

Actually, maybe this whole piece should be moved to the evalStatusLine() function.

len(lines) <= i+3 is the guard for lines not the fields in first line, so the move won't be helpful

@SuperQ There's a case that I cannot check If we only check parentheses, the type will be But maybe we can assume the type does not contain any special characters? |
|
@SuperQ I changed the code for type checking. It passes all current tests, and I hope it can work forever. |
|
@SuperQ I considered this before. But there is another case... We can ignore the type for this, but it's here anyway and it may be useful in some case. |

Ahh, crap, yea, that's a problem. |

Ewww hah..
There must be a better way. Is there an explicit way to query the md type? E.g by reasing another procfs file?

@SuperQ @discordianfish Because of the lack of some knowledge, let's keep this open and see if anyone can help. |

@robbat2 Sure, I will update this later this day! |

@robbat2 I have added the Sign-Off |
Thank you; rebased my PR now |
For something like
We can also get the raid type from /proc/mdstat
